The firm’s civic commitments show up in how we pick engagements, who we hire, and how we spend the time that is not on a client project.
Each year, the full KP team spends a day volunteering with a local nonprofit, from community builds to arranging flowers for local hospitals and nursing facilities.
KP sponsors and supports fundraising events for local nonprofits doing important work.
KP provides high-impact, short-term consulting services at partially or fully discounted rates to local nonprofits that would benefit from a service like a board engagement survey, strategic planning retreat or team building session.
